Hello, there's a discussion regarding article naming (here) of Soyuz / Salyut articles, and we are having difficulty reaching a consensus.. maybe you could help out; thanks. Mlm42 (talk) 20:57, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. I'm no expert on the Russian programs but I'll take a look and weigh in.--RadioFan (talk) 03:03, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi there, I would like to ask you a question, does this article (Greenwood Middle School) need inline citations? Thanks! --Addihockey10^e-mail 03:30, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Inline citiations are always preferred but I'm not sure what there is to cite here. It's such a short article on what appears to be a non-notable subject.--RadioFan (talk) 03:31, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the help :) --Addihockey10^e-mail 04:37, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello! As an member editor of one or more of the Spaceflight, Human spaceflight, Unmanned spaceflight, Timeline of spaceflight or Space colonisation WikiProjects, I'd like to draw to your attention a proposal I have made with regards to the future of the spaceflight-related portals, which can be found at Portal talk:Spaceflight#Portal merge. I'd very much appreciate any suggestions or feedback you'd be able to offer! Many thanks,

Hello there! As part of an effort to determine how many active editors are present in the spaceflight-related WikiProjects, I have made some changes to the list of members of WikiProject Human spaceflight. If you still consider yourself to be an active editor in this project, I would be grateful if you would please edit the list so that your name is not struck out - thus a clearer idea of the critical mass of editors can be determined. Many thanks in advance!

It was taken at the Astronaut Hall of Fame near KSC.--RadioFan (talk) 13:47, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

Hey there RadioFan - It seems you added a 'who?' (citation-needed) to the following sentence "Friday morning, he awoke with a severe sore throat (either quinsy or acute epiglottitis)" of the Death section of the George Washington article. I have removed the template because the information is completely explained in Note #4 as well as the information/source material in Footnote 92(Vadakan) & Footnote 93(Wallenborn), which were placed at the end of the paragraph so the flow of the narrative wouldn't be disturbed. If you think that my reversion is in error, let's discuss the matter further and reach a consensus, either here or on my Talkpage. Cheers, Shearonink (talk) 02:41, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification.--RadioFan (talk) 04:09, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Do independent sources say anything about Michael Jordan's exclusion from the NC Hall of Fame? Then it might be worth mentioning. As things stand now, the fact just comes across as trivia to me. There are all kinds of regional halls of fame out there. Jordan's already in the major HOF for his profession, so it doesn't really matter what the less notable ones do. Zagalejo^^^ 20:36, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

Jordan has been elected but refuses induction. The text on the Hall's website is a kinder way of saying this. I believe this information belongs in the biographic article. To answer your question, his not being in the NCSHOF has been covered by a variety of sources from traditional print and electronic media to academic ones: [1] [2] [3]--RadioFan (talk) 02:02, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

You assert at File:Washington at 19.JPG (and presumably the others) that you "created this work entirely by myself". Did you actually make the recreations, or did you just take pictures? If you did not make the statues, who did? Magic♪piano 21:08, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Of course I created the images, not the figures. The figures were created by the Mount Vernon Ladies Association which maintains

Did you get permission from them to republish images of their (copyrighted) artwork? If not, you will have to provide fair use rationales in compliance with non-free content use guidelines. Magic♪piano 22:43, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

Photography is specifically allowed in the exhibit and it effectively meets the 4 criteria specified in the Copyright Act in 17 U.S.C. § 107 a) the character of use is educational in nature, b) the original work is factual in nature rather than creative, c) only a portion of the work is used here and only enough to represent the work, d) the use here in Wikipedia has no impact on the potential market for the original work. I'll update the image with more information when I get a chance--RadioFan (talk) 23:20, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

OK, thanks. Just make sure it's also clear on the image page what the origin of the statues is (not just the photos). Magic♪piano 03:39, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Earlier today you issued a vandalism warning to User talk:24.152.220.10. I do not believe his edit was vandalism, rather, it made a lot of sense. I reintroduced his edit with an explaination on the top. In several NHL articles where there are flags displayed, the Canadian Flag has been purposely left out to avoid visual clutter. Only if the player is not a born Canadian would their birthflag be listed. The article looks better this way and goes along with other articles, such as List of NHL players with 1000 games played and List of NHL statistical leaders. If you disagree, I welcome a discussion on the talk page of this article. I believe the warning issued to User talk:24.152.220.10 should at the least be rescinded as I do not believe the editor's actions were actually vandalism. Thank you for your consideration. -Pparazorback (talk) 19:50, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

The edit was poorly commented and appeared to be vandalism. It appeared to be a jingoistic action targeted at only Canadian players, something I'm not going to let happen while patrolling recent edits, particularly those from anonymous IPs. There is a lot of controversy across wikipedia about use of flag icons and generally the only legitimate removal of these icons is removal of all flags, not just one country's. If there is some other standard being applied here, I defer to your judgement.--RadioFan (talk) 22:54, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello there. I've noticed you are a frequent user of my software tool, STiki. First, I wanted to thank you for your use of my tool. Second, I wanted to inform you that a new version just became available (see this post on STiki's talk page for a brief summary of changes). I encourage you to download it! Further, keep your bug reports and feature requests flowing in. STiki has now reverted over 25,000 instances of vandalism, and I hope together we can help this number continue to grow. Thanks, West.andrew.g (talk) 04:59, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
